Crystal, have you asked yourself what YOU want to do with YOUR life? Do you want to go to college or is it just your parents? If this is not what you want, then please don’t do it. I mean, do it, get into debt, spend your time on things you are not interested in – if you want to become really unhappy in your life. I’m sorry to be that harsh and direct but this is just how life works. Don’t live the life others want you to live. I know you are afraid to disappoint your parents if you don’t fulfill their wishes for you, and this fear probably comes from you being dependent on their love to you. However, learn to give this love to you yourself, so there is no chance for others to put you down easily. I really wish you living a life YOU dream of. So please, do what you love, it is your life.
